If you want to implement a new parser, I recommend that you
look at the parser in LilyPond, lily/parser.yy. There, you will
at least learn that the full syntax is a fairly complex creature.

I have a question to you; how can the manual be changed so that it is
easier to find the answer to your questions?
There are two things. The first is a short overview of the structure of
a lilypond file. Something that says "A lilypond file consists, at the
top level, of these blocks. This block
I agree. I asked before "what is the structure of an ly file?" I never
got an answer. That leaves me guessing from examples. I was using
2.3.1 for a while, until I found out that some of the formatting doesn't
work yet. When I went back to 2.2.1, I had to make major changes to a

Hopefully, the answer to most of your questions can be founds
in Chapter 4 "Changing defaults" of the manual.

extending lines way past explicit "\break" commands. I've googled and
grep'd tons of documents, and I still don't know how to do it. I've
